Yuletide, life, stuff ...
It's been so long since I posted here. I'm still around, just work has been manic for weeks and rowing's taking all my spare time and I'm soooo tired all the time. I had an amazing, exhausting two months in the summer working at the Olympics but it put me right off kilter ever since. In a week I'm going on holiday, by myself, splashing out on nice ( Read more... ) -
Dear Yuletide author ...
Aaargh! Assignments came out today and I remembered I'd never got around to writing my letter to you. I hope you didn't dash straight here looking for it ( Read more... ) -
Returning, with fic
Life has been busy recently - both work and rowing occupying too much time and energy. I've managed to get out to see a few of the films I wanted to see; very much enjoyed The Hunger Games. Haven't yet managed to see the Aardman Pirates! but am aware I must. Bought a Kindle, have been randomly buying random books which is fun and it's very useful ( Read more... ) -
Reveals!
Yuletide and 3fan-holidays reveals are made. So I can now say a public thank you to Raven/singlecrow for the beautiful Magids fic she wrote me for Yuletide, a flame in two cupped hands, and to just_ann_now for the aptly-titled DW fic Perfectly Perfect which I got in 3fan. I love them both very much. Thank you!
Meanwhile I wrote Threads for saint_vee for Yuletide, a piece ( Read more... ) -
I ate too much
Christmas Day was lovely. I laughed too much and ate too much so my tummy hurts. The parents and I did presents at the hotel first thing - nothing huge, I gave Mum an MP3 player and Dad got a fancy filter for his camera from me and my brother, and Mum and Dad gave me a thing called a speed coach which means I can see how fast I'm going when I'm out ( Read more... ) -
Happy Christmas
Hello. Still here. Mostly reading, less writing. But I wrote, finished and submitted my Yuletide fic, got everything done at work that needed to be done, and am off away for Christmas with the family tomorrow (spending it with my brother's girlfriend's family, in Albany, NY, which is a bit unusual). Nearly forgot my passport. Didn't. Phew ( Read more... ) -
Yuletide yay
I have my assignment - I can work with this! May need to do a bit of source revision but nothing major ... -
Dear Yuletide author ...
I've been a bit busy, so signed up rather at the last minute without having had a chance to think very much about what I wanted to read. As a result I've rather gone back to nostalgia, picking two of my favourite books/series and then being unable to resist the lure of Being Human. I've left the prompts vague, if they fail to inspire you please ( Read more... )
